I have a question in regard to Character Styles. Is it possible to
merely specify some properties in a character style as opposed to all?
In my particular case I have a character style "Code" for a technical
document. All I want that character style to do is to change the font to
Courier New and to condense the spacing a little; all the other
properties, such as font-size and style should be whatever they are for
the paragraph that the text appears in.
Text of the "Code" character-style appears in different places in the
document, such as within the text body, in examples, in footnotes and in
tables. For instance, while my text body is set in 12pt, my examples are
all 10pt. So, I can't use the "Code" character-style in both of them as
it would format the text in whatever font-size has been specified in the
"Code" character-style; I would need to create two "Code"
character-styles, one for 12pt and one for 10pt, which is obviously an
awkward way to go. I would like to use the "Code" character-style in any
of those contexts and merely let it have an effect on the font and the
spacing, leaving the font-size and all the rest of it alone.
Is there any way of doing that?
Use the predefined character style called "Source Text" which I believe
will do exactly what you want. The meaning of the name "Source Text" is
"source code text" and its purpose is to set computer code text. You can
modify the "Source Text" style to condense the letter spacing if you want.
